Came across this while hunting down some facts on Seagate drives this morning and thought those of us who are more hardware orientated might like it. It is fairly thorough and simple to use no fancy and very lengthy spiels which I personally like :)

The problem with those test is their is nothing there about reliability.

I use mostly Intel SSD's. I know now as I new then they were not the fastest but very reliable. They have a 5 year warranty by Intel. Which is a company that is going to be around in 5 years just in case I need a RMA.

Totally agree - this test is nonsense.

According to them, I might as well junk my PC.

Whew I thought it was pretty good just for the info alone including the comparisons - the testing might not be crash hot but I wasn't to know that as I am not that experienced as tester but hey never mind.

My own SSD a Samsung 850 Pro scrubbed up ok and with a ten year warranty I reckon not a bad deal as well as being fast.
